It was at that moment that George remembered where he'd left his spoon. Gary was pleased as punch with the results after entering Gus on MTV's 'Pimp My Horse'. 'Could have been worse. Last week it was a hamster and a traffic cone.'

FOTR - 5/5 FOTR: EE - 5/5 TTT - 4/5 TTT: EE - 4/5 ROTK - 4/5 ROTK: EE - 4.5/5 I actually think that the ROTK Extended Edition is the one that improves upon the theatrical cut the most. Whilst the extra scenes in the other EE's are mainly just added character moments, many of the extra...

'What I found most noteworthy the first time I saw it was that he refused to reach into his bag of usual tricks and just let the material do it's own work on the viewer's emotions.' Me too. In a recent documentary Spielberg said that Schindler's List is the only film he has made where he wasn't...

'Does anyone speak Latin? I've never caught the full translation of what Jim is saying to Dr. Rawlins as he is carried off the roof during the air attack.' I just assumed he was reeling off some of the latin grammar he'd been working on with Rawlins. You were loved, I was loved, etc. It would...

'The British POW's sitting around reading A Midsummer Night's Dream as Jim runs around collecting marbles and soap and corks and what not when we catch up with again as a young adolescent. You can't see what they're reading, you just have to know the play, and hear the brief line of dialogue as...

Thanks for the reply, Ernest. 'I'm intrigued by Adam's comparison between Basie and God. For young Jim, Basie was almost God-like in his survival skills, and Jim worships him. The abandonment is crushing for him as well as Frank, but it is part of Jim's journey to manhood. At the end of the...

Great post Adam. Really interesting ideas. images/smilies/thumbsup.gif You're exactly right about the intelligentsia completely blanking any sign of Spielberg as a deep thinking artist. It just doesn't compute with them that this insanely successful, popular, emotive guy could produce...

Hi, Ernest. Long time no speak. You probably know me better as ‘monkeymac’ from IGN. I heard you were hiding out here so I decided to join up and bother you. Anyway, I watched Empire of the Sun last night (brilliant as always) and kept your excellent review in mind throughout. I just wanted to...

Just me being a noob again. Annoying, ain't it?

Blah blah blah. Success!

One of these days it's going to work.

Well? Will it? :D

Still testing. Bah, still not working.

Bonnie and Clyde Predator

Masters and Ratched for me.

Great news. Although he should really be taken out back and shot like Bambi's mother.

Even though I hate smoking I have to admit it looks really cool on screen. Of course they don't show the bit afterwards where the character spends five minutes coughing violently and spitting out sticky dollops of flem. That wouldn't be quite so cool.

Just a quick test. Nothing to see here. Move along.

I can't believe no one's mentioned Sean Connery yet. His ability to do a Scottish Irishman, Scottish Russian, Scottish American and Scottish Spaniard is amazing. Of course, the fact that he's Sean Connery means he gets away with it. God bless you, sir.

When I was four I thought E.T. was the scariest creature I had ever seen. I was actually happy when he died. Of course now I think it's a brilliant film and I cry my eyes out when he leaves. But be warned - DO NOT show this film to slightly retarded four year olds.

Capone and Kurtz. They're evil, I tells ya!

It's between Fargo and The French Connection.

The Last Temptation of Christ. One of the best films I've ever seen.
